I am not saying it will happen, just saying they could do it if they wanted. This is a hypothetical so don't freak out but if nuclear bombs were being transported across the southern border, do you really think the US and Mexico (not sure about Mexico) would not do anything within their means to stop? Yes, perhaps martial law or putting 50,000 troops on the border. Americans would be on board because the consequences of not stopping them would be catastrophic. Again, I am no suggesting this would happen but just saying we could completely shut down the border if necessary.

well sure we could stop virtually all crime in this country if we went all North Korea on it.

They still have crime in North Korea.

You can't stop drugs. Someone who is addicted will do anything to get a fix. They will always find a way.

Plus, you have corrupt government officials and military leaders south of the border who will never stop getting paid by the drug lords. They all have their hands out to look the other way.

Good that he has walked this back. Bad that he continues to do and say things that he has to walk back.

Also bad that he believes the government of Mexico can do much to stem the tide of drugs coming into the US. Traffickers will find a way as long as they have customers.

Mexico and the US could stop 99% of the drugs coming through the southern border if they wanted to. It is just not a high priority now.

Mexico has no incentive to stop drugs coming over to the US. Every single governor in Mexico is on a Narco payroll- their net worth is exponentially greater, when they keqve office. The same goes for every past president of Mexico- they all leave office wirh incredible wealth built in a short period of time. Every Mexican citizen will tell you this. It is no secret.

You are exaggerating, but sure.

But more to the point, if you don't put blame for the high level of drug use right on the shoulders of Americans themselves, then you are hardly a conservative. You are just a liberal, saying the system victimizes people so they are not responsible for their own actions.

FIXED that for you.

grazie, amico

He never admitted his errors. He was asked which factual errors he committed and he responded, "yes." To fully come clean you need to state which errors you committed and how they were wrong. Saying "yes" is a copout.

Wrong again, dude. Agip has admitted his errors on this thread and many others. I have seen it many times over. Again, he is better than anyone on these boards in this regard.

Your notion of "To fully come clean you need to state which errors you committed and how they were wrong." is absurd. In order to do this he would either have to:

A) Go back through this thread to find all of his posts and pick out the ones in which he admitted to errors (an appalling waste of time)

or

B) Keep a log of all of his posts with highlights for one in which errors were admitted (this would be a clear sign of mental illness).

So, no, you are simply wrong.

It is well known that agip is good about admitting errors. And it is well known that you are the opposite. Sorry, but that's just the way it is.

I told you the real deal, stop being naive. There are two sides to the drug war. I'm all for drug treatment, counseling and seeing people stop using drugs. At the same time, we have a corrupt Mexican government who will not give up the "perks" of their positions, which includes looking the other way while having their "retirement accounts" funded for cooperating with the drug lords.

What would happen if all drugs were legalized, taxed, and quality controlled?

? White flag! Lindsey Graham surrenders, calls on trump to release tax returns IF he’s running again!

Proves the GOP can finally count! We’re 19 months out, and if GOP can’t win with trump (and the midterms were a disaster even without any oversight) they’ll have to dump him.

Oh oh - Mueller investigators were cherry-picking e-mails to give a "nefarious" impression. Trouble in River City!

If I had a penny for every time I heard that Trump is freaking out, panicking, can feel the walls closing in, feeling increasingly alienated, melting down, etc., etc., I would be a far wealthier person than I already am. Come on guys, enough with wishful speculation.

His twitter account typically supports such reports of meltdowns. Whether such meltdowns amount to anything is another story.

Meh. Total non-story. Maybe they did and maybe they didn't. It's all subject to interpretation. And if that's the best you can do to attack Mueller's team then they must be squeaky clean.

Biden is just touchy feely. here he is doing the same thing to men.

Will he take the heat like the VA politicians or fold?

I will admit that was pretty weak. Promise to strive to do better in the future.

yeah. It's not sexual...it's just how he does politics. He's not taking advantage of a power imbalance to feel up a woman...he conveys solidarity with hugs and touches. Which is not creepy.

Just a reminder to the libs who are demanding an unredacted Mueller report:

"Federal law bars the release of material presented to a grand jury, including testimony and evidence, to protect the rights of the accused."

Mueller is helping Barr (his friend of 30 years) to redact his report. If he was unhappy with Barr's summary, I'm sure he would have said so by now.

Don't be collusion truthers.

Funny how Jerry Nadler was demanding numerous redactions in the Starr report but is now demanding an unredacted report in the Muller report. What a hypocrite. Dems are also disingenuous comparing the Mueller report to the Starr and Watergate reports. The Starr and Watergate reports were done by independent councils and basically reported to Congress. That was changed at the behest of Congress, both Dems and Repubs, and we now have a Special Council that reports to the attorney general. Schiff, Nadler and every one else in Congress seems to have forgotten this major change.

Wrong! Barr (executive branch) has seen the report & legislative branch has full oversight & equal rights.
